This is a point I don't see brought up enough. The amount of effort and money spent by corps to discredit unions should be the only proof people need to see they're in their best interest.
Same holds true for any legislation corps fight tooth and nail against. Their only concern is their bottom line. If they're spending millions on something, it's cause it'll save them billions.
My company refused to hire me help and instead are going to spend more than that in "compliance fees" that could have been avoided. They had a choice.

Sorry, but we've taking away your coffee machine. We can't afford the coffee grounds if we want to stay competitive.
Next week we'll install the chains.
Sometimes as a programmer, I'm invited to visit the customer service offices to visit the workers on the front line. We have a bunch of offices around the nation. And if I'm in the area, it's nice to stop in.
The one office did not have a coffee machine! Not a problem - I went to the lobby and bought coffee.
When I told them a bunch of other offices had free coffee, free beer, 8 rows of snacks. Then they said, "Must be nice as a programmer!" And I said, "Nah all of the other customer service offices have that." And I could just see the office manager fuming. I don't know if she was fuming because of some office politics, or fuming because she's secretly getting kickbacks.
Anyways, I left with, "Y'all should really start talking more with your fellow coworkers about benefits."
My position isn’t in a bargaining unit :(
Give a man a raise and you feed him for one year. Teach a man to unite for regular raises and good benefits and you'll feed him for the rest of his life.

In fairness that adds up though. They're spending that to stop the union because it's cheaper than giving everyone a raise. Logically if it's the cheaper option it's more affordable.
Except that they’re not giving you a raise while they live a life of luxury and you eat ramen every night and sweat every day.
Where’s the fairness in that?
I don't remember saying that is fair, or that it's the right or moral decision.
“In fairness that adds up though.”
That wasn’t you?
What? Saying it's fair to say that they consider the cost of stopping unions as cheaper than giving everyone a raise is not the same as saying its fair to overpay themselves while underpaying employees.
